I had never met Greg in person but read all his posts here and interacted with him many times. He always said to everyone if you see me at a show stop and introduce yourself. Well I knew he was supposed to be going to Columbus so I couldn't wait to finally meet him. I had been busy traveling to the event and working the PPG booth so I had not been on social media at all. On Saturday morning I saw the truck in the Builder's Choice area. So I went to the back of the truck where a few people were sitting. I asked the young lady sitting there if Greg was around, her response was that he had passed Friday night. What an absolute punch to the gut. I can't describe the mixed emotions. Obvious total sadness for his loss, Her loss and complete embarrassment for asking about him not knowing. I learned that young woman was his beautiful daughter. I walked away stunned and at a loss for words.

Godspeed Greg.....
